Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba is ranked fourth among wide receivers in Bleacher Report fantasy football rankings for the 2026 season. The selection comes following a 2025 campaign in which Smith-Njigba secured 119 receptions for 1,793 yards and 10 touchdowns. His performance earned him NFL Offensive Player of the Year honors and a first-team All-Pro selection as the Seahawks captured the Super Bowl. Heading into the new season, analysts place him behind Ja’Marr Chase, Puka Nacua, and Amon-Ra St. Brown. Despite the emergence of teammate Rashid Shaheed, who is expected to handle a larger role in the Seahawks offense, Smith-Njigba remains a priority option in early fantasy drafts. The team begins the season with expectations that he will continue as a primary threat in the passing game.
